That “build-up” you are talking about, that’s called business school followed by entry level management or internship, where modern managers brush over learning their business, in favor of seeking efficiency purely in terms of dollars in/dollars out, in opposition to any other metric.

Idunno man, sounds like you’re trying to shift the blame from AI inducing psychosis in people ( pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12712562/ ) towards the people affected by it

No, like the article said: “it’s not as if the current industry problems are unprecedented, or came out of nowhere. Since the advent of modern capitalism (and likely a long while before that), those in charge have often misunderstood, underestimated, or dismissed the hard work that goes into labour they don’t understand.”
This and a tendency to abuse workers have always existed. Management isn’t the victim here, the AI has just removed the limiter, such as it was.

No.
I’m mad about the misrepresentation of psychosis

a state of distorted reality, marked by disturbances in perception and thought, disorganized behavior, and negative symptoms
